POLONG "Worship In Jahanam Darkness"

POLONG “Worship In Jahanam Darkness” (kvlt666)Just one look on the cover and I guessed that this must be another AS SAHAR worshipper. Flip on the traycard and yez, a cover of AS SAHAR’s ‘Meditation Embun Pagi’ is here. POLONG, you made me smile. Now let’s get on with what to be offered here. Don’t get misguided first and foremost. I don’t mind at all with all these ‘AS SAHAR-ness’ if it’s being done well. And this doesn’t apply to POLONG solely. Very well, the cover-artwork itself sets that kind of ‘mood’ for “Worship…”. This crude sounding recording delve into the eastern mystickal realm once again, and I bet that they, the POLONG guys, eat, sleep and drink ‘Meditation Embun Pagi/Santau’-era AS SAHAR and nothing else. I hear it, yez; those familiar signs. Some passages could’ve even end up in AS SAHAR hymns should they get stuck up in that aforementioned era. Luckily for POLONG, AS SAHAR are way past that. I can vouch for POLONG in the future, should they get even better and less juvenile, if you wish to savour those moments once again.www.myspace.com/kvlt666prod
